The title gives it all. Tabu rises above others here. Wamiqa Gabbi works well for the role she was given (which was either written a bit weak, or she is a bad actress). Ali Fazal is good as cold and calculative man, which is expected as he is playing an agent here.
However, the main villain of the movie is the story. The story took quite some time to build up, and yours sincerely felt it to be engaging. However, the end seemed rushed. If the story took so long in building up, then it should have an equally satisfying end. It's something like giving a proper closure.
Vishal Bharadwaj probably could have spent more time in writing down the end of story well, and spent a less time in other parts of story where the romantic angle between Tabu and her reportee is shown. Probably, this could be one good movie with some dose of emotion and lots of calculation like Fredrick Forsyth's novels.
